MailChimp Tutorial

Carrie Dils has put together a great video tutorial on setting on MailChimp. I highly suggest giving it a quick watch!

That should be it!

• For the form action field, use: http://www.aweber.com/scripts/addlead.pl
• For the email field, use “email” (without quotes)
• For the hidden fields, it will contain account-specific information. They’ll look something like this:

  <input type="hidden" name="meta_web_form_id" value="[[user specific number]]" />
  <input type="hidden" name="meta_split_id" value="" />
  <input type="hidden" name="listname" value="ao-primary-list" />
  <input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="http://www.aweber.com/<wbr>thankyou-coi.htm?m=text" id="redirect_[[user specific number]]" />
  <input type="hidden" name="meta_adtracking" value="Main_Web_Form" />
  <input type="hidden" name="meta_message" value="1" />
  <input type="hidden" name="meta_required" value="email" />
  <input type="hidden" name="meta_tooltip" value="email||Email" />

Most likely, you’ll need to include
http://www.feedblitz.com/f/f.fbz?AddNewUserDirect
as the form action field,
EMAIL
as the e-mail field name, and
something like this for the hidden fields (it’ll vary as this is what tells feedblitz what list to subscribe the visitors:

<input name="EMAIL_" maxlength="64" type="hidden" size="25" value="">
<input name="EMAIL_ADDRESS" maxlength="64" type="hidden" size="25" value="">
<input name="FEEDID" type="hidden" value="UNIQUE VALUE">
<input name="PUBLISHER" type="hidden" value="UNIQUE VALUE">

In Campaign Monitor, I have configured a “Signup Source” Custom Field for my List. This way I can segment my List by where they signed up. This field has values like “Website”, “Twitter”, etc. I wanted my website contact form to populate “Signup Source” with the value “Website.”

To have eNews populate a specific value for a custom field along with the form submission, here’s what I did:

1. In your CM signup form creation, make sure the Custom Field you want to include is checked.

2. In the CM signup form code, find the entries that look like

id="fjiehgue" < YOURFIELDID
name="cm-fjiehgue" < YOURFIELDNAME
value="0348395" < YOURVALUE

for this Custom Field and the corresponding value you want it to have.

3. In the eNews widget, under Hidden Fields, enter the following...

``

4. That's it! Save your form.

5. To test your form, make a new submission and go look at the Subscriber's entry to confirm that your Custom Field populated correctly.

ConvertKit’s knowledgebase has a great article on setting up Genesis eNews Extended on their service.

.enews #subbox, .s {

to this:

.enews #subbox, #subbox1, #subbox2, .s {

Presto chango:

Some folks are nonplussed by Minimum’s lack of submit button. A little freebie. In style.css, open it and head to line 1237. Change it from

.enews #subbutton, .searchsubmit {

to

.searchsubmit {

That works for some folks, but what if you want it on the same line as the e-mail address. In that case, add this to your style.css

.enews #subbox {
width: 77%;
}

That’ll give you:

.enews #subbox {

to

.enews #subbox, .enews #subbox1, .enews #subbox2 {

.enews #subbox1 {
background: #fff;
}
